3.31.14…and I’m back!

Last week was ridiculous – training five days in a row, sick for four days in a row – sick enough to miss work on Thursday! It started out as a head cold, and just never got better – achiness, fever, but never got to a full-blown flu. We still looked at houses on Wednesday … Continue reading →

3.23.14 Workout of the Day

3.16.14 Indoor Triathlon!

Dylan and I did our indoor triathlon today. For both of us, it was our first time doing an indoor triathlon – it was Dylan’s first EVER, and my third triathlon that I’ve done. The YWCA of Minneapolis hosted the event, and provided three different lengths: Mini-Sprint: 400-yard swim/8-mile bike/1-mile run Sprint: 500-yard swim/10-mile bike/2-mile … Continue reading →
